File/Folder Comments
You can leave comments on individual files and folders. Discussing a file over a messenger can easily bury that discussion, but using comments preserves the context and makes it easy to find later. You can also continue a conversation through replies.
Before you begin
- Required permission: File write permission
- Administrator setting: Enable File Comments Feature must be turned on in Community Settings.
File Comments
After selecting a file, click the ⓘ button at the top of the main screen to open the file info panel on the right. Select the Comments tab, type your comment in the input box, and select Submit Comment.
- Reply: Click the
⋮button to the right of a comment to reply to it.
Folder Comments
After selecting a folder, click the ⓘ button the same way and open the Comments tab.
Use this to leave notices, work guidelines, deadline reminders, and similar information for the entire folder. A team member who just joined can see it immediately when opening the folder.
Deleting Comments
- Click the
⋮button to the right of a comment, then click 'Delete' to remove it. - You can only delete comments you wrote yourself.
- Administrators can delete any comment.
Good to Know
- Comments are visible to everyone who has access to that file or folder.
- We recommend using comments for discussion about the file, and chat for discussion about people.
